TII exhaust on GSL-SE

Has anyone here put a TII exhaust manifold on a GSL-SE block. Does it fit? Does it line up? Haven't tried it yet myself, so I figured I'd ask before going through the hastle.

i saw a website that someone had done. You need to grind a bunch off the manifold and some off the lower part of the center housing. It looks like kinda a pita, but it CAN be done. I'll try and find the website...

Do you mean you put a TII motor in your 85? They didn't make a TII until 87. That is still a low compression turbo motor unless you change the rotors to n/a rotors. What I am doing this for is high compression/low boost, instead of the typical low compression/high boost of the TII. This car is not a drag race car.
